Re: Naruto Manga 469 Discussion / 470 Predictions

I loved the confession part. Regardless of whatever truth it holds for the future of either pairing it displayed a lot of empathy from Naruto, cause it's obvious he could sense a degree falsehood in it. I haven't cared much for the future of either of the potential couples, but this might even be the end of Sakura + Naruto (She probably loves him, though not completely in a romantic context).

She doesn't want him to get hurt anymore, and thus figured this'd be the only way she could let off her guilt or at least try and put an end to him continuously hurting himself.

This is just what it looks like to me as of now, there might very well be a more complex reason behind it. I'm good with either couple, as long as there's proper reasoning behind it (Since that's what makes the story).

It's a real hard one to explain isn't it? I mean, it certainly wasn't her being completely true, but I think she was at least showing elements of truth.
Almost as if she knew what she was saying was right, but her heart still hasn't let go of Sasuke, but in her mind she knows she shouldn't.

I love how well Naruto understands the people he's grown up with though. It takes a lot of strength, I think, to turn down something you've wanted for so long, even if it's fake, in pursuit of the real thing happening eventually.

I'm not convinced this is the end of Naruto & Sakura yet, since she does know what Sasuke's become isn't who she fell in love with. I have to respect her admitting that. But I think until she really sees him with her own eyes, she might not stop having feelings for him. And at the same time, I don't think Naruto's going to stop having feelings for her overnight and switch to Hinata, either.

I loved the chapter, what I liked most was Naruto's answer... and not because I am anti NaruSaku, I don't care about that. But it shows Naruto cannot be fooled. It's obvious she's lying -at least partially- you can see that from the faces of disgust the other ninjas make as she tries to give Naruto reasons for her change of mind.

It would have been better to tell him the truth "We'll kill Sasuke if necessary". He will find out, anyway. I just hope he can ask Sasuke himself as he was planning.

"Until she sees Sasuke and what he has become..."
We all seem to forget that she loved Sasuke so much that she just didn't care he was leaving Konoha to go with Oro. She's not feeling this unrestricted love for Naruto, she's saying that, when you come to think about it, Naruto is a better guy. But the feelings? Not clear at all.

i think kishimoto just want to prolong the series by making a love confession.
sakura is obviously lying to naruto no kidding.

it seems to me that sukura is telling naruto all those "lies" or maybe not is just to ease him. through her words i can see that sakura still care a lot about sasukle what u guys think?

Re: Naruto Manga 469 Discussion / 470 Predictions

I think she will reallise she loves him as a brother or something like that, and what do you think the ninja with donzo mean when he said he will want my body soon? do you recon he uses orochimarus technique?

Re: Naruto Manga 469 Discussion / 470 Predictions

I've actually cared about the relationships they have grown over growing up but i can't help but feel Sakura's feelings are confused. Like she loves Naruto but not romantically like the other post stated. The Chapter was too short for me and felt rushed...

sorry if ive missread/missunderstood

I was thinking, that some thing has denzo and would jump over to him when it needs to change.

Re: Naruto Manga 469 Discussion / 470 Predictions

I'm would say it was really late for sakura to come up with that and everyone knows she is lying:P. As for the whole Danzo thing here is my prediction i think Danzo will get the byakugan and go back to the village and take full control while naruto and co. are out and when naruto comes we will have a naruto and danzo fight in which naruto will kill or beat up danzo and his sharingan will be taken away (i think naruto will show the advance form of the death reaper seal and take away danzo's eye)

Re: Naruto Manga 469 Discussion / 470 Predictions

What a crappy ass chapter!!! Its kind of weird though because the whole time Sakura is confessing her feelings to Naruto they are showing flashbacks of when Sakura was talking to the rest of the guys and showed how they made a promise. I think Sakura is planning something to help Sauske or to keep Naruto safe. She made everyone promise something in the meeting she had with the others before they came looking for Naruto. Dont know if I missed something that chapter but it looks suspicious. I guess ill re read the chapter to see what they promised or if the manga just shows them promising something without letting us knowing what it was.
